Activities were overshadowed by tragedy
CLITHEROE Mountaineering Club chairman Mr Nick Millward empha sised at the annual meeting how this year’s activities had been overshad owed by the tragic death of Mr Alan Grooby. He was a popular and stalwart
I’i'f
member, of the club, whose cheerful disposition and seemingly limitless energy would never be forgotten. Members agreed that a leather-bound route book to record future activities be bought in memory of him. Mr Millward reported that mem
bership had remained stable and that there had been an upturn in weekend hut bookings after a worrying period of diminishing support. He thanked all the officials for their hard work in ensuring that events had run smooth ly, and stated that new blood would be welcome on the committee. He said members continue to visit
various parts of the world such as Yosemite, Russia and Corsica to pur sue their mountaineering interests, and two pairs had taken part in the Karrimor International Mountain Marathon in October. He urged members to produce articles on their activities for the clubb newsletter. Treasurer Mr Mike Carter read the
healthy financial report, stating mem bership fees would remain the same. Officers elected were: Mr Millward
(chairman), Mrs Paula Carter (vice- chairman), Mrs Sue Hembury (secre tary), Mr Carter (treasurer), Mrs Valerie Grooby (outdoor meets organ iser), Mrs Amanda Reddy (indoor meets organiser); Mr Neil Whalley (membership secretary). Committee: Mr John Barrett, Mr Tony Halliwell, Mr Eric Mansfield, Mr Geoffrey Met calfe, Mrs Hannah Metcalfe, Mr David Taylor arid Mr Shaun Wood-
ward.An ambitious programme of
' indoor meetings for 2003 include a •visit by Mr Richard Haszko, a regular contributor to High Magazine, a well- known climbing activist and lecturing colleague of Sir Chris Bonnington. There will also be presentations by
the North-West Air Ambulance organisation and a sports injury pre vention specialist, together with illus trated lectures about various moun tain areas of the world. Eight outdoor meets will be held during the year, including hut stays in the Lake Dis trict or Snowdonia arid camping visits .to Moffat and Dolgellau.
. The next meeting will be on
December 19th in Clitheroe Cricket Club at 8 p.m., when Mrs Val Randall will give an illustrated talk about her travels in Russia.
